Carlo Ancelotti has been sacked as
manager of Real Madrid after two
seasons in charge of the Spanish
club.
The Italian, 55, led Real to victory in the
Spanish Cup before claiming the club's
10th European Cup last season.
But this year they were knocked out by
Juventus in the Champions League
semi-finals, while Barcelona won La
Liga.
Ancelotti's side finished second in
Spain's top flight, two points behind
Barca, who have reached the Spanish
Cup and Champions League finals.
Club president Florentino Perez told a
news conference it had "not been an
easy decision" before thanking
Ancelotti and adding that a new
manager would be appointed "in the
coming week".
Napoli boss Rafael Benitez has
emerged as a contender for the role,
while German newspaper Bild claims
Jurgen Klopp, who will step down as
Borussia Dortmund manager at the end
of the season, will take a six-month
break from football.
Real beat city rivals Atletico Madrid 4-1
after extra time in the Champions
League final in June 2014 to claim 'La
Decima' - their 10th victory in Europe's
most prestigious club competition.
It was Ancelotti's third Champions
League title as a manager - he also won
it twice with AC Milan, in 2003 and
2007 - but he leaves Madrid having
failed to claim the Spanish title since
joining from Paris St-Germain in July
2013.
The former Chelsea boss, whose
contract was due to run until the end of
next season, also won the Club World
Cup in December before Real were
knocked out of the Copa del Rey by
Atletico in January.
In an interview with Italian newspaper Il
Giornale published on Monday
morning, before his departure was
announced, Ancelotti said he would
take a year off and have back surgery if
he left Real.
"I must have a back operation because
of spinal stenosis that for some time
creates a tingle in my hands," he said.
"I don't know how long the period of
recovery will be," he added. "I can
assure you that I've had plenty of offers
from Italy, England, Germany. I'm sure
they will not be lacking from here until
next year."
An inevitable but unpopular decision?
Spanish football expert Andy West:
"In one sense, Ancelotti's departure
was inevitable because all-powerful
Real president Florentino Perez appears
to have taken the decision a while ago.
"Even in mid-March, Perez would only
assert that Ancelotti would be in charge
for the next few 'days and weeks', and
from that moment it seemed certain
the Italian's fate rested on his team's
ability to win either the Champions
League or La Liga.
"With both those trophies escaping
Real's grasp, Monday's news is no
surprise. But the stubborn Perez has
been forced to withstand an
unexpectedly strong degree of public
and private pressure because Ancelotti
remained highly popular to the end.
"His last pre-game news conference on
Friday ended with the media giving
him a standing ovation, which was
subsequently repeated by fans before
Saturday's game against Getafe at the
Bernabeu.
"Then several players voiced their
support for the coach, most notably
Cristiano Ronaldo and James Rodriguez.
"But Perez ignored all of them, and now
faces a tough task in placating those
within and outside his organisation who
wanted to keep Ancelotti by appointing
a suitable replacement. And the early
signs are that Rafa Benitez would
receive little more than a lukewarm
reception."

Florentino Perez always with a happy trigger hand, he doesn't waste time handing sack letter to managers. Hope he will not regret this one.
